yes it certainly would

Kaj: 
love your r2 bindings for zeromq 
i've been trying to implement the push-pull ventilator example

ventilator:
REBOL []

do %zmq.r

pool: zmq/new-pool 1
socket: zmq/open pool zmq/push
zmq/serve socket tcp://*:5555

ventilate: func[][
  print "sending"
  u: form time/now/precise
  zmq/send socket to-binary u 0
]

wait 0:00:60 [
  ventilate
]

worker:
REBOL []

do %zmq.r

pool: zmq/new-pool 1
socket: zmq/open pool zmq/pull
zmq/connect socket tcp://*:5555

data: copy #{}

forever [
  zmq/receive socket data 0
  prin ["."] 
  print to-string data
]

...but the worker crashes

any idea why?

the weather update server works just fine...

Please excuse my ignorance but has rebol been open sourced yet?

Nicolas, the license is still being discussed.

Thanks. That's what I suspected but I wasn't sure.

Excited?

Well, it will be interesting to see if we can finally get some movement 
on it, but Red is getting rather distracting.

Yeah, I'm playing with it now.

Still. I'm pretty excited to see the code.

Sujoy, I only did a request/reply example so far, so I'll have to 
look into it

Thanks Kaj

i need to be able to get rebol working with push-pull, so i can get 
apps running behind zed shaw's mongrel2 server

there's nothing better than rebol for parsing - and i want to keep 
using rebol
any help hugely appreciated!

I'm running Mongrel since several weeks, with Cheyenne and Fossil 
behind it

cool! so you have the mongrel pushing requests to Cheyenne?

You could also run R2 code on Cheyenne, and use Mongrel as a proxy

yes - mongrel as a proxy is great, but i was thinking more in terms 
of zed's idea of a language agnostic web server

so some apps (or parts of apps) could be written in rebol

Only as a proxy so far, I'm planning towards running Red and R3 0MQ 
servers as Mongrel apps

i noticed that the r3 bindings are much more stable than r2
r2 tends to crash with zmq

but i'm nervous about using r3...

I haven't tested them much yet, but Janko is running his business 
on the R2 binding

good to know!

i haven't seen janko around in a long time - i've been interested 
in using his distributed actors library, but cant find it online 
anywhere

Janko is around, but he's busy

I'd say with the latest news, there's a future for R3 again

his blog - janko-in-a-jar seems offline
any ideas if he's shifted to some other domain?

YES! the news is incredible

Dunno

Open Source R3! Thank you Carl!!

hoping that r2 will also be open sourced though

I don't think so. However, I'll run as much as possible on Red

i havent started using red yet...
itching to

r2 probably relies on some third party closed source, more than r3.

perhaps...but would be good to see r2 open

at least for bug fixing, it would be nice, but with the legal issues 
that r3 must go through to become open source, I imagine it would 
be more difficult for r2.

well - am super excited that r3 is in what looks like the final stages 
of being open sourced
i'm not a licensing guru, but LGPL and MIT looks good to me
or Apache

or a custom REBOL license - based on Carl's latest blog post

Had to make a Red bug report, but I'm looking into your ventilator 
now

thanks Kaj!

Which 0MQ version are you using?

2.1.4

That's good, I'm getting some strange results with 3.2

strange as in?

Request/reply is not printing the message content

works perfectly with 2.1.4

havent been looking at changes to zmq for a while now

but all of my python stuff works just fine with 3.2

AND i have pub-sub working between r2 and python

2.1.4 on r2, 3.2 on python
